We did not receive the correct information because it was only sent by email, which did not arrive as the message was too large. My advice: always insist on posted information as well,

I highly recommend Jackie and Barcan & Kirby to anyone in need of conveyancing services.

We needed to renew our mortgage and time was very much a factor before extra charges were applied. Emma Cox was the first point of contact who was very professional and thorough but most of all personable and put us through to the right people in the company and got us ready for the documentation we would need to put forward.
The next contact was Maggie who, again, was very professional, kind and very quick acting (which is what we needed). She prepared everything and got us ready and before we knew it the application was put forward and the mortgage was arranged in a matter of weeks and we managed to avoid any unnecessary fines/charges.
I would definitely recommend both Emma and Maggie's services and if they are anything to go by regarding the rest of the company, then you will be in good hands in letting these guys take the reigns for you. Thanks again to both of you for helping us when we really needed it :)

Brilliant work done by Barcan & Kirby, specifically Tom Humphries, great communication, fast and effective work to exceed expectations and complete ahead of schedule whilst dealing with a heavy workload pre Christmas. Couldn’t have been happier with the efforts and clarity during the process and every step of the way. Thank you Tom.

Thank you so much to Maggie and Emma who handled our house purchase last year. We were first time buyers and their patience with answering all of our questions during the process was immeasurably helpful. They made the whole experience very smooth.
